Missing link connects Kilgariff

A
new $1 million 3.3km path extension from Old Timers to Kilgariff has been
announced as part of the $174 million infrastructure investment into Central
Australia.

The
new project will start from the existing concrete path at Old Timers, continue
past Pioneer Park and ending at Kilgariff, creating a safe travel corridor alongside
the South Stuart Highway and linking up to existing pathways.

The
Northern Territory Government has called for tenders to complete construction
in June.

This
project will be a positive addition for residents in Alice’s newest suburb of
Kilgariff, and will also be of benefit to those cyclists who wish to avoid the
journey riding on the Highway.

The
Northern Territory Government recently called for tenders to construct an
$825,000 new pathway to create a boardwalk experience connecting Stott Terrace
and Tuncks Road, and investing a further $2.5M in pathways from Bradshaw Drive
to the Alice Springs Desert Park linking up to the Simpsons Gap bike ride.
